Library search failed with own trial database in mgf format

Describe the bug Hi Ming. I was trying to run a job with a section of an own database created from a pdf file in mgf format. The mgf format was created by Wout like a year ago, and I want to know how to improve it in order to create our own database of frogs alkaloids because currently there is not a single match with the mgf library.

To Reproduce Steps/Task to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to: https://gnps.ucsd.edu/ProteoSAFe/status.jsp?task=b26fc94c12f4456c830b326ff57f8b9e
  2. Click on to the top hits, and there is not a single result.

Expected behavior I expect to improve this initial mgf file in order to create our own database. Before filling all the information needed for the batch load of annotated spectra (https://ccms-ucsd.github.io/GNPSDocumentation/batchupload/) because I know that is discouraged, I want to try to upload this pdf database. However, I am aware that some compounds have not very informative data, because only contain two or three mass fragments. Do you think that is possible?

I've attached the mgf file of the library. Thanks a lot
